The Moderating Role of Firm’s Level of Participation in a Cluster in the Relation between Absorptive Capacity and Sustainability Practices
Objective: this study aimed to analyze the moderating role of the firm’s participation level in a cluster in the relation between absorptive capacity and economic, social, and environmental sustainability practices. Methods: data were collected through a survey applied to 417 small and medium-sized firms participating in clusters. Results: results indicate that the absorptive capacity influences positively and directly the adoption of economic, social, and environmental sustainability practices. Such relations are moderated by the firm’s level of participation in a cluster. Conclusions: we conclude that it is vital for the firm to seek external information and use it in line with the information and resources it already has to generate economic, social, and environmental sustainability practices. In addition, firms with a higher level of participation in a cluster are more likely to grow, establish partnerships, carry out innovation, and increase productivity.
期刊介绍:
Launched in 2004, BAR has an international scope in terms of topics of interest, target audience, and editorial boards. It is an A2-journal according to the Brazilian classification Qualis/Capes, which is thus a strong signal about the quality of published works and about the transparency of the editorial process. BAR follows the editorial principles available in document Best Practices of Scientific Publication, an initiative championed by the Brazilian Academy of Management (ANPAD) that seeks to assist journals to achieve high scholarly standards and enhance their impact as sources for theoretical and applied research. Furthermore, since 2013, BAR is a member of COPE (Committee on Publication Ethics), what is another signal of efforts made towards adhering to the most rigorous ethical principles in academic publication.
